Johanniskraut Tee (Hypericum Perforatum)

The herb modulates neurotransmitter pathways by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine, which increases their levels in the brain. This action helps improve mood and may reduce depressive symptoms.

The appropriate amount of tea to brew is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional or the product label. Dosage may vary based on individual needs, age, and clinical judgment.

Safety data for Hypericum perforatum in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It is generally advised to avoid use unless a qualified health professional determines that the potential benefits outweigh the risks.

Unlike synthetic antidepressants, Johanniskraut Tee is a herbal preparation that works by modulating multiple neurotransmitters. It may have a milder side‑effect profile but can interact with many conventional drugs, requiring careful monitoring.

Store the tea in a dry, airtight container at ambient temperature, protected from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the packaging sealed until use to preserve potency and prevent contamination.

The product is prepared as an infusion. Typically, a measured amount of the dried herb is steeped in hot water for several minutes, then strained and consumed orally as directed by the healthcare provider.

Serious risks include photosensitivity, which can cause severe sunburn, and the potential for serotonin syndrome when combined with other serotonergic agents. Rare allergic reactions such as rash, swelling or breathing difficulty may also occur.

Individuals taking MAO inhibitors, SSRIs, SNRIs, tricyclic antidepressants, anticoagulants like warfarin, oral contraceptives, or those with known hypersensitivity to Hypericum should avoid the tea unless supervised by a medical professional.
